During the launch event of Aprilia scooters, Company’s officials revealed to Autocar that they are still studying the Indian market and the launch of the bike has been delayed till 2020. The publication said that the company is interested in the 150-300 cc segment in India. It is a good news at first glance but when looked at closely, it sounds trouble for buyers of affordable motorcycles. Let's see how-
The Italian motorcycle brand Aprilia has showcased two very exciting products at the ongoing Auto Expo 2018- Aprilia RS 150 and Aprilia Tuono 150. Both the bikes are showcased for the first time at any platform, though Aprilia has similar kind of offerings in 125cc class restricted to international markets only. Company has put these beauties for display to gather feedback from the masses. Based on these reactions Aprilia will decide when to bring these motorcycles to Indian roads.
After Aprilia announced its comeback to WSBK with SMR/Milwaukee after a year long hiatus, the bikes to be used get a well deserved update to compete with the already sophisticated rivals on the grid.
Team Suzuki Ecstar’s Aleix Espargaro announced that he will be joining the Factory Aprilia team for the 2017 and 2018 seasons as part of a two year deal signed recently. The news came out at the end of the Dutch TT in Assen.
